"Past and Present" Tony Lee 18 September

Post by melbarnes »

Tony Lee will be presenting "The Past" - the photographs his father (a journalistic photographer) took of famous people, including the Coronation Street original cast, Bing Crosby's visit to Manchester, Stanley Mathews and Manchester United.

He will also show us "The Present" - some of his recent work, including photos of Auschwitz, and work he was commissioned to carry out for magazines, including behind the scenes on a match day at Everton, and work for N-Power.

An excellent and very interesting presentation provided tonight by two generations of the Lee family! Thanks go to Tony Lee for his work in compiling this presentation of his father's photos and his own photos.

Really enjoyed that tonight, interesting, memorable and valuable shots. A great family record as well as nostalgic and moving. Never ceases to amaze me at the talent that keeps coming forth from ADAPs. Thanks Tony, a fascinating night.

It was excellent all round, and very thought provoking. It is really great to see that we can cover deeper photographic subjects at ADAPS, and Tony gave this one the gravitas that it deserved.
